What is a connection loss?

Quite often when I try to view web pages it takes age to fetch them The bar at the bottom slow goes to 35% then stops. I have to click on refresh and most of the time this will cause the pages to load.

Is this what is meant by a connection loss?

It can happen with any web site as it did with first accessing this web site. In down loading the first page it stop at about 35% for 1/2 a sec.

Re: What is a connection loss?

You could try specifying a proxy to see if that helps.
Also make sure you check for viruses or spyware too to make sure nothing is bugging your connection.

Re: What is a connection loss?

Do you find some other sites also load slow (not with the pause, but taking a while loading the page content)?
